Mr. Imbt was my first musical teacher at McCullough Elementary in the early '80's, and it was through his teachings that I became interested in and learned to play the flute. May he rest in peace.

Mr Imbt was my choral teacher at George Read Jr High back in the early 70s. He was a wonderful teacher and a kind soul. That is how I will remember him. I pray his soul will rest in peace.
